Gale is a crater on Mars near the northwestern part of the Aeolis quadrangle at 5°24′S 137°48′E / 5.4°S 137.8°E / -5.4; 137.8. It is 154 km (96 mi) in diameter and estimated to be about 3.5-3.8 billion years old. The crater was named after Walter Frederick Gale, an amateur astronomer from Sydney, Australia, who observed Mars in the late 19th century.Aeolis Mons is a mountain in the center of Gale and rises 5.5 km (18,000 ft) high.Aeolis Palus is the plain between the northern wall of Gale and the northern foothills of Aeolis Mons.Peace Vallis, a nearby outflow channel, 'flows' down from the Gale crater hills to the Aeolis Palus below and seems to have been carved by flowing water.
The NASA Mars rover, Curiosity, of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission, landed in "Yellowknife" Quad 51 of Aeolis Palus in Gale at 05:32 UTC August 6, 2012. NASA named the landing location Bradbury Landing on August 22, 2012.Curiosity is expected to explore Aeolis Mons and surrounding areas.
Richard Hoagland may refer to:
A gale is a very strong wind. There are conflicting definitions of how strong a wind must be to be considered a gale. The U.S. National Weather Service defines a gale as 34–47 knots (63–87 km/h, 17.5–24.2 m/s or 39–54 miles/hour) of sustained surface winds. Forecasters typically issue gale warnings when winds of this strength are expected.
Other sources use minima as low as 28 knots (52 km/h, 32 mph) and maxima as high as 90 knots (170 km/h, 100 mph). Through 1986, the National Hurricane Center used the term gale to refer to winds of tropical force for coastal areas, between 33 knots (61 km/h, 38 mph) and 63 knots (117 km/h, 72 mph). The 90-knot (170 km/h) definition is very non-standard. A common alternative definition of the maximum is 55 knots (102 km/h, 63 mph).
The most common way of measuring winds is with the Beaufort scale, which defines a gale as wind from 50 to 102 km/h. It is an empirical measure for describing wind speed based mainly on observed sea conditions. Its full name is the Beaufort Wind Force Scale.
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second smallest planet in the Solar System, after Mercury. Named after the Roman god of war, it is often referred to as the "Red Planet" because the iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a reddish appearance. Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth.
The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second-highest known mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in the Solar System. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature. Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos, which are small and irregularly shaped. These may be captured asteroids, similar to 5261 Eureka, a Mars trojan.
Whats up Guys / Gals ..... Here is a picture from the JPL site with the description " Cemented Fractures in Mountain Inside Gale Crater on Mars" I believe this area has a very large city or cities in / on it. There is what looks likes many structures that I believe do not look naturally made. Take a look yourself and let me know what you think, and what you find! As always, thanks for watching!

Located on Curiosity's mast, the ChemCam instrument ("Chemistry and Camera") uses a laser to provide the elemental composition of geological features along the rover's path. Since 2012, it has contributed to the investigation of geological units that record a time when on Mars, at Gale crater, liquid water was present at the surface. Dr. Nachon's talk will focus on the ChemCam analysis of geological features embedded or cross-cutting sedimentary rocks that have formed in a fluvial-lacustrine complex. These geological features correspond to a "late" stage of the history of sedimentary rocks at Gale, after their deposition in the fluvial-lacustrine environment.

These all came from the May 21st 2016 Other Side Of Midnight radio show with Richard C. Hoagland. I am leaving for Firefly Music Festival in Dover Delaware today and wanted to leave you all with the highest resolutions. My friend Todd and I went through and grabbed some of the favorites that we thought would go well with the show and I went into the PDS (Planetary Database System) and pulled out the 8 bit lossless files and am showing the BEST quality that I ever have on YouTube! If an anomaly is over six months old we do not have to use the 70% JPEG files on the NASA website. Here is a link to the Analyst Notebook as well as the website on the video to download your own copies!

Close up view of the the first color 360° panorama delivered by the Mars Science Laboratory rover. Mike Malin, Curiosity MAST camera Principle Investigator, highlights the imagery.
Newly released observations by the Curiosity rover suggest a crater on Mars once had the conditions necessary to sustain long-lasting lakes that stood for millions, maybe even tens of millions of years.
I didn't take these pictures! NASA did! We were the first to present credible humanoid shapes from La VIctoria Crater... is it any wonder we are the first channel to show you credible humanoids from Gale Crater now? Two Standing and Two Sitting Humanoids in a Mars Photo! Ok! Bring On The Insults!
Soar over the crater on Mars that will be the landing site for NASA's Curiosity rover.
A big update for Take on Mars was released on Friday, among the many updates and bugfixes is the ability to control the lander manually so you can try the landing out for yourself. This video was created using games from Bohemia Interactive. 'Take On Mars' is a registered trademark of Bohemia Interactive a.s. See www.bistudio.com for more information.
Gale Crater is one of the candidate landing sites for the Mars Science Laboratory. In this video, Dawn Sumner gives a tour of variations in the surface expression of layering, possibly related to "recent" wind erosion as well as long-term recrystallization of surface minerals. Watch in HD, full screen to see the cursor pointing out details. The imagery used includes a CTX mosaic (provided by Miliken) and HiRISE images. Both are draped over MOLA, HRSC, and HiRISE DEMs. The images and DEMs are not perfectly correlated in this data set, leading some edge effects. The video shows real-time manipulation of the data in the program Crusta running on Vrui, written by Tony Bernardin and Oliver Kreylos, respectively, as part of the Keck Center for Active Visualization in Earth Sciences, U...

Visit my website at http://www.junglejoel.com - Lick Observatory features the famous 36 inch Lick Refractor, built during the golden age of refractor telescopes -and one of the largest refractors ever built. Down the road is the more modern automated Terrestrial Planet Finder telescope, as well as the giant 120 inch Shane Telescope. Please rate and comment, thanks!
We barely could see the lake but that fog made it even more special. More info: http://iceland.for91days.com/a-surreal-visit-to-the-viti-crater/
